Book 1 of a trilogy.This is sci fi, and it's also kind of a love story between a human and an alien.One evening an alien space ship crashes on the hill behind the home of pop star Selena M, up along the Northern California coastline. Selena decides to nurse the surviving alien-a very non-human creature-back to health, and repair its space ship to send it home.The government thinks otherwise. Whose space ship is it, anyway? Does it belong to Selena, on whose property it crashed? Or to the Feds, who crave the technology? And what about the poor alien?The alien, whom she nicknames Breadbox, communicates via singing. It had fled its home world because it didn't want to sing the music mandated by the Elders. Selena also has become bored with her singing. But Selena and Breadbox inspire each other to sing their most meaningful songs, and to recapture the soul of their singing.But when the Feds finally discover the crashed alien vessel, they drag it off to the desert and "sequester" Selena in case she has some dreaded alien disease. But really, they just want to dissect the vessel-and the alien corpses-to see what makes them tick.Selena discovers that the robotic cylinder that belonged to Breadbox has many unexpected powers. For one, it is guiding the space ship to repair itself. Selena sees that she could take it back from the government and fly off into space. This crazy idea grows on her. She could at least return the vessel with the remains of Breadbox to the home world. Why does Selena even want to keep the spaceship? Would she give up her singing career for this?At the end of Book 1, Selena makes the space ship take off from the desert and go into orbit around the Moon.Book 2. My Spaceship Calls Out to MeBook 3.

This "compellingly hard-hitting" bestseller from a Pulitzer Prize finalist gives readers the complete untold story of the top-secret military base for the first time (New York Times). It is the most famous military installation in the world. And it doesn't exist. Located a mere seventy-five miles outside of Las Vegas in Nevada's desert, the base has never been acknowledged by the U.S. government — but Area 51 has captivated imaginations for decades. Myths and hypotheses about Area 51 have long abounded, thanks to the intense secrecy enveloping it. Some claim it is home to aliens, underground tunnel systems, and nuclear facilities. Others believe that the lunar landing itself was filmed there. The prevalence of these rumors stems from the fact that no credible insider has ever divulged the truth about his time inside the base. Until now. Annie Jacobsen had exclusive access to nineteen men who served the base proudly and secretly for decades and are now aged 75-92, and unprecedented access to fifty-five additional military and intelligence personnel, scientists, pilots, and engineers linked to the secret base, thirty-two of whom lived and worked there for extended periods. In Area 51, Jacobsen shows us what has really gone on in the Nevada desert, from testing nuclear weapons to building super-secret, supersonic jets to pursuing the War on Terror. This is the first book based on interviews with eye witnesses to Area 51 history, which makes it the seminal work on the subject. Filled with formerly classified information that has never been accurately decoded for the public, Area 51 weaves the mysterious activities of the top-secret base into a gripping narrative, showing that facts are often more fantastic than fiction, especially when the distinction is almost impossible to make.

IF UFOS DON'T EXIST, THEN THEY CAN'T CRASH. But something did crash near Corona, a tiny town not far from Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. And that crash has been dissected and debated ever since. Aviation/science writer Don Berliner and nuclear physicist Stanton Friedman, the original civilian investigator of the so-called Roswell incident, have delved into the controversy to find the truth. They sifted through once-classified government documents, interviewed military and civilian witnesses, pieced together evidence, considered alternative theories, and concluded that a UFO crashed near Corona-and the U.S. government knew it and covered it up. Crash at Corona proves that what was found in the New Mexico desert wasn't a weather balloon or a secret weapon-it was a UFO. "One of the more credible books arguing the existence of UFOs...Most arresting of all is the testimony of those who handled the debris, who had no opportunity to compare notes, yet have described the materials ...in almost identical language."-Publishers Weekly DON BERLINER has written more than 300 magazine articles and 25 books on aviation history and space and was also a staff writer for the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP). He is board chairman of the non-profit Fund for UFO Research, Inc., and is a delegate to the UFO Research Coalition. STANTON T. FRIEDMAN is a nuclear physicist who has worked for General Electric, General Motors, Westinghouse, and other corporations. He is also the author of TOP SECRET/MAJIC and has appeared on Larry King, Unsolved Mysteries, and Nightline, and was involved with the documentaries UFOs Are Real and Flying Saucers Are Real. He was the final speaker at the fiftieth anniversary conference at the International UFO Museum and Research Center at Roswell, and has given more than 700 lectures on the subject of UFOs.

On August 25, 1974, along the Rio Grande River near the Texas border town of Presidio, a thunderous explosion in the sky shattered the stillness of the warm summer night. An unidentified flying disc traveling at 2,000 miles per hour collided with a small airplane heading south from El Paso, Texas. The flaming wreckage of both aircraft fell to the Mexican desert below, igniting a desperate race by two governments to recover technology from beyond the stars. This book was the basis for an episode of the History Channel's "UFO Hunters" television series. REVIEWS: "Amazing! This story is wilder than the U.S. Roswell. This book is an amazing piece of work." - George Noory, Coast to Coast AM. "A very nice and thorough job." Jim Marrs, Bestselling Author. "Noe and Ruben are to be commended." - Stanton T. Friedman, UFO Researcher.
